A Cornucopia of Ways to Welcome Visitors for the Holidays

Let the festivities begin! Yes, before we know it, the holiday season will be upon us. We recommend you start thinking about your curb appeal now so you have plenty of time to create the look that will place your personal stamp on the holiday season. Here are a few front porch decoration ideas to get you started:

2. If you have a square mailbox, top it off with a bouquet of winter plants. Use a wide, shallow planter and fill with a mix of pansies, cedar, lavender and rosemary. If you are feeling ambitious, trim to resemble a Christmas tree. Or, wrap ribbon around a pine garland and drape it around the mailbox. Wire clusters of bright Nandina berries to the top of the post. For a Christmas finish, add a big bow!

3. Don’t forget the front porch. Rustic aluminum containers positioned on the door and stairs are festive, especially when it is filled with herbs and bright accents like berries and red amaryllis blooms. What? No front porch or portico? Autumn is a great time create maximum curb appeal, protect your threshold and package deliveries, and welcome your holiday visitors check out Georgia Front Porch image galleries to see amazing before & after transformations.
